Chapter 55: The Prototype of the Machine House
“No, I still have something on. Next time.” Xu Qing refused. She had already been there just now, so there was no need to cause trouble anymore.
“Alright then.” Lei Yanning noticed Xu Qing’s scruples and didn’t force her. He just felt an indescribable sense of regret.
Xu Qing smiled faintly and left the teahouse to find Bai Zhuo.
When she arrived at that place, Xu Qing understood why the people in the teahouse said that she could find him when she arrived at the tail street. This was because there was only one house on the entire tail street. However, she didn’t understand why the person who built a house for the Yin family was so poor.
Xu Qing knocked on the door in confusion, but no one answered. She was about to call for help when…
A weathered voice came from inside. “I’m not building a house for anyone anymore. Leave.”
Xu Qing could hear the fatigue in his voice and guessed that many people must have come to find him. He was probably tired of it. “Sir, I heard from others that there’s no house in this world that you can’t build. It’s just that I don’t believe it. I have a blueprint in my hand. I think you definitely can’t build it.”
The voice sounded again. “It’s useless to goad me.”
Xu Qing raised her eyebrows slightly. It seemed like he was a person with a story, but she somehow felt that only he could build the house she wanted.
“The method isn’t important. What’s important is the blueprint.” As she spoke, Xu Qing stuffed the blueprint into the door.
Xu Qing had also thought of casually building a house and living in it. However, later on, she started to have more thoughts about it. After her business empire was established, she really couldn’t feel at ease without a safe and reliable house in this backward era.
Xu Qing waited for more than ten minutes, but there was still no sound from the other party. In the end, she could only give up and prepare to leave. However, just as she turned around, the other party suddenly rushed out and shouted excitedly, “Wait!”
Xu Qing stopped in her tracks and turned around. The corners of her mouth couldn’t help but twitch. This person was really sloppy! His clothes were tattered, his hair was messy, and his beard was twisted together…
“You drew this blueprint yourself?” Bai Zhuo was excited.
Xu Qing nodded.
“Alright, I’ll make an exception and build a house for you!” Bai Zhuo was excited for a long time before he finally realized his situation. He smiled awkwardly at Xu Qing. “I’m too excited. I’ll tidy myself up now and go survey the terrain with you. In addition, there are some things that are wrong with this blueprint. I still have to discuss it with you.”
“Then I’ll wait for you at the teahouse in front.” Xu Qing nodded.
“Alright.” Bai Zhuo nodded.
Xu Qing didn’t have to wait long before a handsome and burly man appeared in front of her. Perhaps it was because the blueprint was too surprising, but at this moment, Bai Zhuo no longer seemed as gloomy as before and had become high-spirited. With his vitality, his temperament immediately changed.
“Little girl, you can call me Uncle Bai in the future.” Bai Zhuo couldn’t wait to sit in front of Xu Qing and place the blueprint Xu Qing had designed on the table.
“My name is Xu Qing. Call me by my name.” Xu Qing smiled.
Uncle Bai immediately shouted affectionately, “Little Qing, let me tell you, I’ve built a house that’s even more luxurious and special than this in my dream! That’s a house that has never been seen on this continent. Oh, right, someone called it a villa in my dream! Unfortunately, no one believed me, so I felt dejected. Now that I saw your blueprint, I know that my dream can come true!”
Bai Zhuo’s words surprised Xu Qing. Could he be the person who built the villa for Ying Zhiyao?

Although Ying Zhiyao later gave everyone medicine that would make them lose their memories, accidents always happened.
Xu Qing’s house was a combination of her house in her original world and the current place. From the outside, it looked like an ordinary house, but the interior was very different. However, when Xu Qing heard Bai Zhuo’s modification of this house, her eyes slowly widened. She didn’t expect Bai Zhuo to not only know how to build a house, but also know array formations and mechanisms!
For safety’s sake, she had set up a simple array formation in the courtyard. Anyone who trespassed would only get lost. Xu Qing couldn’t be blamed for being careful. She was very worried about the three children at home. Moreover, it was only right to take precautions. However, after Bai Zhuo’s modification, it had become a mechanical house. Even the escape route was filled with danger.
Xu Qing was a little helpless. She didn’t think it was that complicated. If people found out that her house was unusual, there would definitely be trouble.
However, because of Bai Zhuo’s change and Xu Qing’s cautiousness, she was able to escape with her family in the future. She was afraid of trouble the most, so she never would have thought that the greatest trouble would be at home!
